Spanakopita Bites

Step 1

Roughly chop the fresh mint leaves.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt, mint & half the garlic (crushed or minced).

Step 3

Add a drizzle of olive oil, salt & pepper to the yogurt. Then refrigerate.

Step 4

Heat a drizzle of oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the spinach & the rest of the crushed or minced garlic. Sauté for 1 min.

Step 5

Turn off the heat. Season with salt & pepper. Crumble the feta cheese into the pan. Stir to combine & set aside.

Step 6

Cut the filo sheets in half, using half of a sheet for each triangle.

Step 7

Gently separate your first filo half-sheet.

Step 8

Brush it with olive oil.

Step 9

Place a spoonful of filling on one end of the sheet.

Step 10

Fold the end of the sheet over the filling. Then continue folding the triangle of filling up & over, alternating sides. (Like you're folding an American flag!) Press the end tightly to seal. Repeat with the remaining filo & filling.

Step 11

Place the filo triangles on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 10 min at 400°F, or according to the filo package instructions. The triangles should be golden & crispy.

Step 12

Serve with the chilled mint-yogurt dip. Enjoy!
